Amazing... I am glad I found your writing. What began as a Jimmy Dore retweet has blossomed into a must read Newsletter. You are truly gifted. Thanks little talented starfish in the massive cosmos.
This was a great post. Here's an added angle that could play into such a story: The universe is evolving not only physically but perhaps also consciously. We are no longer the barbarian, pillagers, or audience of people hanging in village squares. We are constantly striving for greater justice and equality. From a Jungian and perhaps a broader idealist metaphysical perspective every act of love - as well as hatred - becomes part of the collective unconscious. Perhaps we should focus on adding love into that collective for the greater good of all.
The world you just described has no room for profit motive, which explains a lot about the one we've got. Such a stupid tiny itch, and look where it's gotten us.
You hold in your heart a deep and roaring rage against the wrongs of the world. And point them out with prose of agony and despair. So much so that there are some of your pieces I simply delete at the first paragraph because I know were I to read the rest I'd be haunted for the rest of the day.
And yet, within that same heart you possess a core of beauty and awe at this thing called life. And again, you're brave enough to share this with the world as well. I think...not know...suspect...that putting up these pieces exposes vulnerabilities you'd rather keep shielded.

Holy shit, Caitlin. You really get it. None of it matters and yet it all matters. It just is.
Trying to stop war in a world of warmongers.... one splash at a time!

You have written some great pieces previously. This one moved me most of all.
I totally loved this,

It just hit me why you're so damn special.
